Ridiculous

I am embarrassed to say that on many days I use about 7 paper towels per meal.  Ridiculous, really.  In my attempt to cut way back on this number, I bought a set of 10 microfiber cloths.  They suggest that you assign specific colors to certain jobs around the house, which is a pretty good idea.

  I will let you know how this goes.  For something like this to work for me, I need a system and a place to let them dry throughout the day.  My house is fairly small, minimalist, clean and I don't like things cluttering my space.  It is also my instinct to reach for paper towels so I am going to have to consciously make the switch. In addition, I plan to buy some cloth napkins which will help save paper towels too since I gave up paper napkins a few months ago.
